Barovier&Toso is the most ancient glass company in the world, established in 1295 and still based in Venice Murano, devoted to maintain and innovate the glass tradition with timeless masterpieces, unique for design, exquisite manufacture, technology fused with creativity, to inspire true emotions, positive feelings and special atmosphere.MANIFESTOIn seven centuries of history, we have seen fashions come and go. Some were minimal, others more baroque, but every one of them chased time in a desperate search for the "new."Time in Venice, instead, goes by slowly. There is no rush, no craze, just a great deal of space and time to develop your craft.So we took our time and in that time we have learned that we would rather do something unique andenlightening that lasts forever instead of something new that only fascinates you for one season.It takes strength to bring glass out from the fire and heat. It takes patience to strive for nothing less than the perfect shape. And it takes heart, a lot of it, to grow a legendary luxury lighting tradition into the new world, working with innovators and traditionalists alike. But again, we can afford the luxury of time. And perhaps, so can you.
